So, Heather, Christopher and I took a road trip to see my Grandparents in St. George, then up to my Aunt Wendy/ Uncle Bo/ 5 (technically 4now, since 1 is married) cousins in Provo.

...PROVO!!!
It is now my new favorite place. Not really sure where it was before, but Provo is now #1.
Anyway.
Friday- Sunday morning: visited with the G Parents. Saturday, went to Zion.
Sunday- Left after church to go to Provo!! Chatted all day, lol.
Monday- Aunt Wendy and Andrew (who's 9) took us up to Rock Canyon. We hiked about 5 miles round-trip. It was BEAUTIFUL!! We saw some big horned-sheep.
Tuesday- hung out, went to a water park for a few hours, then H, C and I went rockhounding in deep desert, found topaz! I found a yellow piece and a big piece. Had amazing dinner at Auntie's
Wednesday- the fam went to Lagoon, and we went to Temple Square, the Conference Center, and to find geodes. I found the biggest and heaviest piece :) haha.
I had never been to Provo or Salt Lake Before, so I fell in love with it. My Aunt Wendy Lives Literally next door to the Provo Temple, so I got to see that, too. Also right there, I saw 2 deer looking all cute running through the neighborhood... 30 minutes later, 2 deer get hit and killed next to the MTC :(
And then yesterday, WE almost hit a deer :O
Thursday (today)- left Provo (sad) at 10, went to go get my BYU sweatshirt, then drove through Manti to see my Uncle/ Great Grandma and family's graves. Also saw the temple, of course. I took a picture of a statue that was dedicated to my Great Grandma. We got back to St. George tonight, at around 5, maybe.
I definetely want to go back to Provo in the winter or spring, when it's not snowing too crazy, so I can go snowboarding! :) And then, also dirt bike riding. Hiking was great, and met some cool people out here. I usually do :)
one thing I've learned about Utah, is that there are less cities/ towns than land. HAHA so many tiny towns. I think that changes once you get passed SLC. Im gonna have to find out... maybe when I check out Idaho! x) lol
